Week 3 [Mon, Jan 27th] - Summary

We start tutorials this week. But due to CNY holidays, we will not follow the regular tutorial timetable this week. See the Tutorial tab for more details.

In-video quizzes can earn you bonus participation marks!

Starting from week 3, some pre-recorded videos in the Topics tab will contain in-video quizzes. Videos containing quizzes are labelled Video Q+ (instead of the usual Video)
